Interrupt only for approval, missing data or scope

CategoryauthoringManual3.2Evidencereported

ProblemBots either interrupt constantly or never, and both are useless.

TechniqueKeep a standing rule in the description: interrupt only for an approval, missing data, or something outside the agreed scope; otherwise finish and show me.

Why it worksIt names the three legitimate reasons to stop, so everything else resolves to finishing.

When to useDay one, in the description rather than in a message.
